9 year McCoy Michaelsen got his first turkey ever. If was hill first kill ever. He killed it the evening of the 30th (evening of 2nd to last day). 3 little Jake’s were making their way across an alfalfa field and we were at the end of the field waiting for them. They popped their heads up in some long grass 39 yards away and McCoy made a perfect shot on this little Jake. I think we got him hooked on hunting.

Charley was fishing with her family on Minersville Reservoir and caught this nice fish. She set the all-time record for “the fastest fish ever reeled in.” It was a great day for all.

Fish Lake in May Good family times, up at Fish Lake. With cool weather, lots of UTV and hiking trails, camping, smores, and plenty of 14-16” rainbows. But 10 year old Bode (Bow-dee) had the best surprise of all, when this 34”, 25lb lake trout hit his spinner on his light weight fishing rod with 4 lb test and the fight was on. Having to let the fish tire itself out and at times follow the fish with the pontoon boat, ten minutes later this photo was possible. That’s a trip to remember. Nice fish Bode!

Troy has been asking to go catfishing after finding some videos on YouTube. Troy made quick work catching his first channel cat 5 minutes after his first cast. It was an amazing afternoon bite. To be honest Dad wasn’t sure we would catch anything in the heat of the day. But wasn’t willing to turn down a fishing trip either. Seeing the smiles on Troy’s face as he kept saying, dad they fight harder than the trout, and he learned how to let them run to tire them out. Was an amazing day of memories. Caught 15 total in 2 hours and kept 4 for dinner. The catfish nuggets were amazing! Im happy to have a kiddo that loves the outdoors and making memories.

We have been watching the two baby owlets for a couple of weeks. The mom would fly in and check on them. One night I walked out just before dark and was looking for them in the tree, when I turned around I saw one owlet looking straight at me. We have enjoyed watching them grow.
